Disability rights law sits at the intersection of constitutional and statutory guarantees. The ADA's Title II prohibition on discrimination by public entities is constitutionally grounded in Congress's Section 5 power — and the Supreme Court has evaluated whether Congress assembled sufficient evidence of constitutional violations to justify the ADA's abrogation of state immunity. Olmstead gives people with disabilities the right to live in the most integrated setting appropriate to their needs.
The Constitutional Disability Rights Warrior is Volume L of Wayne Richard Evangelista's Constitutional Law Series.
Wayne Richard Evangelista covers the full disability rights constitutional landscape: ADA Title II constitutional dimensions — Section 5 power, Tennessee v. Lane, United States v. Georgia, and Board of Trustees v. Garrett (Title I); Section 504 as a spending condition — its constitutional basis and Alexander v. Choate's meaningful access standard; the IDEA — constitutional due process from Rowley through Endrew F. v. Douglas County; Olmstead v. L.C. — the integration mandate, ADA Title II enforcement, and DOJ enforcement practice; City of Cleburne's rational basis with bite for intellectual disability classifications; and disability rights in criminal justice — competency, Ford v. Wainwright, Atkins v. Virginia, and Moore v. Texas.
